The Clifford Tower was built by William the Conqueror to suppress the rebellious North, and was once a Royal Mint, a medieval fortress and a Civil War garrison. One of the worst anti-Semitic massacres of the Middle Ages occurred on the site of the tower in 1190, when the Jewish community in York was trapped by a mob and many Jews chose to commit suicide rather than murder. Today, a new roof terrace offers unparalleled views of York's historic skyline, with its medieval architecture and famous cathedrals. Inside, new sidewalks and staircases open parts of the tower that have been banned for centuries, immersive soundscapes and stories bring to life the tower's turbulent history.

The solitary monastery on the cliffs, which Bram Stoke had seen, was so broken and vicissitudes that he gazed at the northern coastline. The towering columns and famous rib arches were so majestic and silently recounting what had happened.

It was worth a visit. Old Mrs Eileen drove me from Harrogate to Rippon, 12 miles away. This is the site of the Royal Water Garden and Fountain Abbey. It is a world heritage site. It was built in 1132 and abandoned in the 16th century. The broken walls are ruined, desolate, but shocking. It is best to bring a camera, any angle is a blockbuster. Slowly turn a small circle, three hours. There is also a cafe, deer park.
